The ten days within which the May- or must sign or veto the resolution granting the San Francisco Athletic Club the professional boxing permit for March will expire to-fay. As al- ready told in The Call, the Mayor has intimated he will veto the resolution on the ground that theYosemite Club, which would be entitled to the March contest, has been unfairly dealt with by the Democratic Suvervisors, who took the opportunity to wvent their wrath on James W.

Last year when the circus was in| New York Manager H. S. Rowe w. confronted with the immediate neces- sity of replenishing his menagerie. Through adverse climatic conditions a great many of the wild animals died. Rowe at once cabled his agents in Europe to buy up all the wild in sight. In a short time a consignment of elephants, monkey lions, tigers and catamounts arrive by steamer. In the meantime more nimals were obtained from South The agents in Europe were cabled to stop buying. The order ar- rived too late, for another load of an- imals had just been shipped. When the jungle tribe reached New York it was found necessary to en- large the menagerie, so that is why Norris & Rowe are at a great expense showing the largest aggregation of undomesticated animals in the United States. Great trouble is experienced in maintaining the health of the animals. agerial ness due to change of climate, while others are killed in bloody fights with their cage mates. The last days of the circus are ap- proaching. Over 60,000 people have thus far attended. The show ends Sunday night. —_—e————— BOORAEM'S ARREST PROVES TO HAVE BE A MISTAKE Mining Engineer Who Was on His Way to Goldfield Is Discharged by Judge Cabaniss. Robert Booraem, mining engineer from New York, who was arrested at the St. Francie Hotel on Wednesday afternoon on a dispatch from Santa Barbara, applied to Police Judge Ca- baniss yesterday to be released on bail. He explained to the Judge that he had been a guest for a few days at the Hotel Potter, Santa Barbara, with a friend. He produced a letter of credit for $500 on the First National Bank of Los Angeles and said he had thought, on that bank, but it had been on the wrong bank through a mistake of the clerk’s. Booraem’s friend was in court and showed the Judge a letter of credit for $4000. He assured the Judge.that Booraem’s statement was true. The Judge said he would fix the bail at $200 cash and Booraem’'s friend promptly put up the amount. Just at that moment Detective Bunner, who made the arrest, came hurriedly into court and showed the Judge a tele- gram received from Santa Barbara by Acting Chief Spillane, which read: “Don’t arrest Booraem. Had funds.” The Judge promptly discharged Booraem in open court. Booraem threatened to bring a suit for dam- ages against the proprietor of the Ho- tel Potter for malicious arrest. He is on his way to Goldfleld, Nev. —_—e———— - MEMBER OF TIVOLI COMPANY IS GRANTED A DIVORCE Handsome Mrs. Chandler Says That Her Husband Deserted Her in Salt Lake.

Toledo Overhauls and Disposes of Rockaway. BY FRED E. MULHOLLAND., * Sad Sam met his old rival, E. M. Brattain, in a six-furlong encounter yesterday at Oakland track. The Texas half-breed defeated the gray, but did not win the race. Ridden by Graham he made all the running and looked like the money until the paddock was reached. Here Graham let Knapp, astride Nigrette, through on the ralil, and the black mare from the Jennings stable won by a length in 1:13. E. M. | Brattain tired perceptibly, losing the show to Romaine. Favorites decamped with three purses. The winners all received back- ing, however, and the bookmakers laid away nothing. CHIEF WITTMAN SCORES. Chlef Wittman, with W. Davis up, | captured the 2-year-old half-mile dash. The big chestnut colt closed a 7 to 5 favorite, and had his hands full to overtake and beat Lorena M a head. Fifteen to 1 could be had on the latter. Ramona disposed of the tardy Iron Watson for show honors. As Lloyd Fountain is no star and had the mount on Dora I, the mare's admirers were enabled to obtain a pro- fusion of 9 to b in the betting on the six and a half furiong run. She was fortunate to get through on the rail and in a hard drive downed Olympian : nleck. Royal White ran third at 18 o 1. Sacredus took the six-furlong purse run for Walter Jennings. Royal Rogue, played down to 9 to 10 favorit- ism, led at the paddock and looked all over a winner, when Knapp brought Sacredus up with a rush, getting the decision by a neck. Eddie Walsh rode a vigorous finish on the 16 to 1 outsid- er, Billy Taylor, finishing a close third. NORTH WEST AN EASY WINNER. With Hugh McGowan safely en- sconced in his stall, North West looked all over a winner for the mile and twenty yard selling run. The price against the Figaro stable’s mare dropped from 6 to 5 to 4 to 5 and she ran away from her field. Lady Kent, a 25 to 1 shot, ran second, less than a length ahead of Isabelita. By his showing in the concluding mile run Rockaway demonstrated that distance of any sort is not his forte. The Jennings horse had Treubel in the saddle and went to the post fa- vorite over Toledo. He was permitted to map out his own pace and then Toledo lowered his colors at the fin- ish, hand ridden only. Gateway fin- ished third. TRACK NOTES. The whereabouts of Solomon Bon- ner, the colored rider, remain a dark secret. Memphis, though, is said to be_ his destination. W. Davis came out after an extend- | ed vacation and rode an excellent race on Chief Wittman, winner of the two- year-old scramble. Davis is’ only a Loy and his previous displays of tem- per and other failings were overlooked, the crowd giving him a warm wel- come. Davis means to act like a gen- tleman, but now and then he forgets. A little age will curb this fault and he can rest assured the California public forgives him. Ed Corrigan is figuring on winning the Kentucky Derby with Drexel. Tod Sloan will be the pilot. Royal Rogue is “a bleeder” and Birkenruth was probably afraid to hustle the chestnut too much. “‘Big Bill” Knapp rode two winners. His handling of Nigrette was a nice piece of horsemanship, and now in all, likelihood the Jennings stable, rider Las broken the hoodoo. Harry Stover will send Kenilworth, George P. McNear and Abe Meyer to the New York tracks this season, it is said. Harold Ford, the well-known pad- dock commissioner, is reducing for the coming baseball season. High balls will be tabooed for low balls. The two-year-olds from the Napa Stock Farm in the New York string of Newton Bennington have been christened as follows: Voorhes, b. c. by Solitaire I1-Carnation II; Belasco, b. c. by Solitaire II-Headflower; Black Gem, br. or blk. ¢. by Solitaire II-Break o’ Day; Cinna, ch. c. by Mar- ius II-Elminette; Marius Calus, ch. c. by Marius II-Florence B. Bookmaker Joe Rose is something of a spceulator when the spell strikes him. Up to the fifth race Joe found himself $6500 in the hole. He bet $700 on Nigrette and held her out in his book. Then favoring and getting down on Toledo to win the last, he quit win- ner on the day. PRACTICE WORK DRAWS NEAR TO ITS CLOSE Fire Laddies and Coppers Putting Fin- ishing Touches on Their Con- dition Stunts. Only two days remain before the firemen and the policemen will hook up for their annual chairity ball game at Recreation Park and the rival toss- ers are putting in their best licks to be in form when Umpire Jack O'Con- nell calls time. The practice work will draw to a close to-morrow, when both teams will do some lively work. Michael Joseph Conboy says he will make the firemen rooters look like stage money when he starts with his brigade. Conboy has been appointed official yell leader for the coppers, and the firemen are hard at work collect- ing a bunch of bells with which to drown the music of the whistles in possession of Conboy and his follow- ers, ¢ —_—————————— Dark Outlook for Missouri Racing.

Western Jockey Club Officials Have Some Problems to Solve. CHICAGO, March 9.—It was an- nounced to-day that the Western Jockey Club stewards will hold an important meeting to reconsider racing dates. It is said this reconsid- eration involves only Little Rock, Oaklawn, New Orleans and possibly Memphis tracks. The meeting will probably be held on Monday. The real problem for consideration is the situation at New Orleans, where the Crescent City track has put on eight races a day in or- der to ‘“‘do things” to the City Park track. Should dates for this track be extended, as many think will be the case, it will Interfere with Memphis track, which stil] clalms to be loval to the Condon-Cella interests, which means the Western Jockéy Club. It is thought there will be no opposition to allotting the Little Rock dates to the Hot Springs track. ———— | MAYOR GIVES UP IDEA OF SUSPENDING BAEHR.{ come strong as well as beautiful.

The Mayor believes that better results will be obtained by hav- ing a Supreme Court decision on the point as to whether the Grand Jury can incur unlimited expenditures in the discharge of its duties. Especially does the Mavor want a judicial deter- mination of the right of the inquisi- torial body to rent outside quarters and buy additional furniture when rooms and furniture have been pro- vided. at the City Hall for the pur- pose. The Mayor has not as yet outlined any mode of procedure in the matter, but it is quite likely that he will have some taxpayer bring suit against the Auditor to restrain him from paying the next hatch of de- mands for Grand Jury expenses. This would throw the dispute in the courts. Baehr audited demands for February aggregating some $700 for various expenditures for the Grand Jury, but payment of the March bills will be contested.
